,The incident locations represented are approximated and not the actual location of the incident. Latitudinal and longitudinal coordinates have been truncate to 3 decimal points. The estimated location lies within approximately a 1/4 mile radius. This approximated location data is also shown on the dashboard.,This feature layer supports the Opioid Abuse Probable EMS Call Dashboard. The following documents what data are collected and why they are being collected.,Opioid Abuse Probable,A call may be coded as “opioid abuse probable” for many reasons, such as,,,,,,“Opioid abuse probable” is determined by Tempe Fire Medical Rescue Department’s Emergency medical technicians and paramedics on scene at the time of the incident.,Narcan/Naloxone Given,“Narcan/Naloxone Given” refers to whether the medication Narcan/Naloxone was given to patients who exhibited signs or symptoms of a potential opioid overdose or to patients who fall within treatment protocols that require Narcan/Naloxone to be given. Narcan/Naloxone are the same medication with Narcan being the trade name and Naloxone being the generic name for the medication. Narcan is the reversal medication used by medical providers for opioid overdoses.,Groups,“Groups” are used to determine if there are specific populations that have an increase in opioid abuse.,,,,Gender,Patient gender is documented as male or female when crews are able to obtain this information from the patient. There are some circumstances where this information is not readily determined and the patient is unable to communicate with our crews. In these circumstances, crews may document unknown/unable to determine.,Information about the data can be found at https://bit.ly/2xXbD20,

This dataset represents summarized police activity related to narcotics, including specific actions, values of narcotics seized, cash seized, guns seized, and arrests. Data is aggregated by hex grid and displayed as the centroid point for each grid cell. Source datasets are geocoded differently, so events near the perimeter of grid cells may be counted in the neighboring cell from where it actually occured.

,The Calls for Service dataset includes police service requests for which patrol officers, traffic officers, bike officers and, on occasion, detectives will be dispatched to public safety response. It also includes self-initiated calls for service where an officer witnesses a violation or suspicious activity for which they would respond. This item represents a consolidated item of all records.,Why the Datasets are Organized into Separate Layers,In January of 2022, the Tempe Police Department completed a major transition in how crimes data is reported, moving from the FBI Uniform Crime Report program to the enhanced National-Incident Based Reporting System, or NIBRS. NIBRS is now the required reporting method for the FBI. The Uniform Crime Report (UCR) Program's traditional Summary Reporting System (SRS) was limited in comparison to NIBRS, which offers more detailed data collection that provides a deeper understanding of crime and its circumstances.,NIBRS captures a wider range of details on crime incidents and can reflect separate offenses occurring during the same event, including information on victims, known offenders, relationships between victims and offenders, arrestees, and property involved in the crimes. With greater specificity in reporting offenses, NIBRS provides for more accurate and detailed crime-related information, and helps give context to specific crime issues while affording greater analytic capability of crime. Below is the link to Tempe-specific NIBRS reports. Use the drop-down filters to select Tempe PD, the year, and the type of report.,,Because of these differences, trends and numbers between the two systems should not be directly compared. That’s why we treat 2022 and later (NIBRS) separately from 2021 and earlier (UCR).,To make the older data easier to browse, we grouped the data from 2021 and earlier into year ranges instead of showing it all at once.

Explore wastewater data and dashboards for opioid biomarkers.

Wastewater-based epidemiology, which is the science of studying community sewage for public health information, is one method of getting information about community health and narcotics consumption. In an effort to prevent and reduce opioid misuse, the City of Tempe is working with scientists from Arizona State University's Biodesign Institute to study the city's wastewater.,

The National Hospital Care Survey (NHCS) collects data on patient care in hospital-based settings to describe patterns of health care delivery and utilization in the United States. Settings currently include inpatient and emergency departments (ED). From this collection, the NHCS contributes data that may inform emerging national health threats such as the current opioid public health emergency. The 2022 - 2024 NHCS are not yet fully operational so it is important to note that the data presented here are preliminary and not nationally representative. The data are from 24 hospitals submitting inpatient and 23 hospitals submitting ED Uniform Bill (UB)-04 administrative claims from October 1, 2022–September 30, 2024. Even though the data are not nationally representative, they can provide insight into the use of opioids and other overdose drugs. The NHCS data is submitted from various types of hospitals (e.g., general/acute, children’s, etc.) and can show results from a variety of indicators related to drug use, such as overall drug use, comorbidities, and drug and polydrug overdose. NHCS data can also be used to report on patient conditions within the hospital over time.
